What was your intended objective when you started the build?

Sexy, Fast, Realiable. She has miles, no Trailer Queen here.

What motivated you to start your project?

Motivation started when I left the car scene. Big turbo cars are money pits. Bought 5 street bikes and still wasnt satisfied. After buying a ZX-10R in May of 2014,then in June 2014 I bought the Blackline from a shady listing on Craigslist. Shockingly the “shady ad” was just an older gentleman who didnt know how to use the internet. Its been a long honeymoon ever since.

What was the most unique and creative thing you did to the bike?

All the gold plating and the fact its a Blackline. You dont see them around.

What are you most proud of?

Im proud of the whole build. Seems after my gold work on the Harley ive seen alot of big name builders doing it with shop bikes.

What do other people say about your motorcycle?

I get tons of thumbs up from cars on the road, every gas station fill up I get questioned about it. And instagram loves it. “Delilah” gets alot love and attention.
